This is discussed in the gingerbread WB thread. Haven't experienced this except in xrecovery. Reflashing from 2.1 might work.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4196640:
that happened to me too, I flashed it to 2.1 again, then installed Wolf GB ROM.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J!K:
thanks but never mind, i just tried another sd card and it read it, i think the upgrade mess up my sd card i might have to find a way to re-format it...
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J!K:
did it worked after re-flashing the phone?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4196640:
yes, it worked
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J!K:
do i flash it the same way i did when i went from 1.6 to 2.1 original firmware?
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] J!K:
Did everything again and still doesn't work... I guess im just gonna have to use my 1gb sd card till i find the adapter for it and re-format it to see if it works then... thanks anyways :)

[HTC EVO 3D] ChrisDos:
This initial creation of just the Casino Royale gun barrel down animation has turned into a life of it's own. The following animations are available at this point:

Casino Royale gun barrel as both a boot and down animation using the same clip. The shower scene was also requested from the movie and I've added that as well.

Back to the Future of the Deloreon disappearing for the boot animation and having it reappear for the down animation.

Iron Man: There a a couple of choices for the boot animation. The first boot animation is Iron Man flying in his silver suit trying to reach the altitude record. The second boot animation is a firefight with insurgents. The down animation is Iron Man blowing up the missiles.

How to Train Your Dragon: Flying scene. Large. I'm at my limit of attaching file so you will need to download it form here:

http://www.chrisdos.com/evo_3d_animations/

Star Wars Millennium Falcon: Both boot and down animations. The boot animation is quite long and the phone boots up before it completes. To see the whole thing run adb shell bootanimation. With CM7's long boot times, I'll be able to see the whole thing when it boots up. You can get it from here:

http://www.chrisdos.com/evo_3d_animations/

Terminators: I've added a few clips. I'll probably be adding a couple more from the other movies. Get the animations from here:

http://www.chrisdos.com/evo_3d_animations/

Check out the clips from here:

http://www.chrisdos.com/movie_clips

To install, choose wither you are installation a boot animation or a down animation:

Boot Animation installation instructions using ADB:

To install, we need to replace /system/customize/resource/Sprint_bootanimation.zip with the new animation.

adb remount (hopefully your rooted rom supports the root shell when opening adb)

adb push <boot_animation_chosen> /system/customize/resource/Sprint_bootanimation.zip

adb shell chmod 644 /system/customize/resource/Sprint_bootanimation.zip

Down Animation installation instructions using ADB:

To install, we need to replace /system/customize/resource/Sprint_downanimation.zip with the new animation.

adb remount (hopefully your rooted rom supports the root shell when opening adb)

adb push <boot_animation_chosen> /system/customize/resource/Sprint_downanimation.zip

adb shell chmod 644 /system/customize/resource/Sprint_downanimation.zip

These were made from the Blu-rays or DVDs that I have.

Programs and commands that I used that will help others:

Extracted the sequence of frames I wanted using avidemux2_gtk

Converted the frames to jpg's using ffmpeg:

ffmpeg -i Casino_Royale_Gun_Barrel.mp4 %03d.jpg

zipped everything up with no compression:

zip -r0 /tmp/casino_royale_downanimation.zip *

Hopefully everyone enjoys these as much as I do.

If you wish to view the movie clips used for these, you can see them here:

http://www.chrisdos.com/movie_clips/

I have a LOT of movies that I spent three months and six computers going full tilt to rip. My list is here:

http://pastebin.com/NsLggMtm

If anyone would like any short clips made, I'm open to suggestions. Though I would have to like to the clip as well. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] Riff76:
awesome! gonna give it a try!
[HTC EVO 3D] johncjenc:
I had to reset the permissions but beyond that it works and looks awesome. A little lag where the blood runs down the screen or is that by design?
[HTC EVO 3D] il Duce:
Permissions are rwxrr, or you can chmod 744.

BANG! from my shooter...
[HTC EVO 3D] ckombo:
Nice work. I made this splash screen yesterday and shared it on another post. It's an old school bond barrel. Might go well with your bootanimation. I think you should do an old school boot animation too. If I knew how, I would.
[HTC EVO 3D] nascarfan22:
how u reset permissions
[HTC EVO 3D] ChrisDos:
You should be able to run the following if you get a root shell through adb:

adb remount

adb shell chmod 644 /system/customize/resource/Sprint_downanimation.zip
[HTC EVO 3D] firestetz:
Op I see you have back to the future, do you think you could make two clips one with the deloreon dissapearing and one with it reappearing?
[HTC EVO 3D] johncjenc:
This would be bad ass!
[HTC EVO 3D] ChrisDos:
As a boot animation or down animation? Which movie? What scene?
[HTC EVO 3D] firestetz:
I would like to have the dissapearing one for the downanimation and the reapearing for the bootanimation. Doesn't really matter as from which BTF as long as it looks good like all of them.

On second thought the first test of the time machine with Einstein riding in it would probably be the best runner up would be the hover version.
[HTC EVO 3D] dpg2001:
do you flash the zip first then run the chmod or run chmod first and then flash?
[HTC EVO 3D] johncjenc:
Appearing for boot and disappear for down animation. Too cool
[HTC EVO 3D] ChrisDos:
It's not a flash the zip kind of thing. It's a copy the zip to replace the file using adb.
[HTC EVO 3D] ChrisDos:
How about these that I've attached. They are only the videos. If they look like the clips that you like, I'll make them into the animation files. I don't know if I can do sound yet or if you even want sound.
[HTC EVO 3D] firestetz:
Cool dling and checking out now.
[HTC EVO 3D] jfizz88:
how would you push this if youre on a custom rom then. theres no sprint animations
[HTC EVO 3D] ChrisDos:
The locations should still be there, even if the ROM developer removed the animations. You just need to copy the files to the correct location.
[HTC EVO 3D] firestetz:
Those are perfect, sound would be cool but if you can't is no biggie. Thanks man I love you (in a completely non homosexual way).
[HTC EVO 3D] jfizz88:
so

adb push casino_royale_downanimation.zip /system/customize/resource/

adb shell chmod 644 /system/customize/resource/

or does it still have to be adb push casino_royale_downanimation.zip /system/customize/resource/Sprint_downanimation.zip

adb shell chmod 644 /system/customize/resource/Sprint_downanimation.zip

im on ReWInD 3D RLS2 rom
[HTC EVO 3D] johncjenc:
The boot is almost 30 seconds, I vote truncate from second 12 to second 24? Both are awesome and ill use and truncate myself if everyone else is good with the length
[HTC EVO 3D] johncjenc:
Bro, you can use root explorer, just change the zip name to match the sprint boot animation name exactly. Paste into system /customize /resource and long press to change the permissions. Much simpler I think.
[HTC EVO 3D] firestetz:
Are you saying you could shorten boot time? Because the clip for boot is only 7 sec. Not trying to be an ass just trying to understand what you mean.

E: or are you talking about putting blank data before or after? For myself if it would pause at the last frame after it ran would be cool.
[HTC EVO 3D] johncjenc:
The clip for boot is 7 seconds? I just watched it using itunes (nothing else would play it) and it went through 26 seconds??

Edit: ah I see the issue, I have a frame rate decoding problem with viewing. NM all is perfect. Fire away.
[HTC EVO 3D] jfizz88:
what permissions should be checked off. its currently none for user, (read write execute) under group, and (read execute) for others
[HTC EVO 3D] johncjenc:
There's a grid r (read) w (write) x (execute) match those with the chmod permissions list (I'm on mobile so I can't look back and forth) but each line is a new permission.

Edit :its rwx (first line) r (second line) r (third line)
[HTC EVO 3D] jfizz88:
got it thanks man. this whole time tho i thought this was a boot animation and i pushed it to the folder your way, and it was giving a black screen for the boot. then i tried adb and realized it was the DOWN animation lmao smh. luckily i saved the original boot animation before i did anything
[HTC EVO 3D] johncjenc:
Lol i had issues at first too, but if you find it got screwy all you have to do is look in your custom rom or ruu and extract the original zip files and replace. It's nbd really, won't bork the phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] jfizz88:
i just tried to make this a bootanimation instead. opened up original bootanim and changed all bond splash jpgs to png and set them in two folders part0 and part1 just like original. even used the same text inside desc.txt. no avail still a black screen on bootup lol but works fine as down animation
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
Did you rename it to Sprint_Bootanimation.zip and you really dont have to change jpegs to pngs for it to work

brought to you by the little voices in my head
[HTC EVO 3D] jfizz88:
yeah i did that too:confused:

i think it would be better as a boot animation because i dont really turn off my phone by the button loll. if its dying i pull out the battery and change it
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
I can take a look at it later after work and see if I can get it running,if you don't get it working by then.

brought to you by the little voices in my head
[HTC EVO 3D] ChrisDos:
I've attached the Back to the Future down animation to the first post.

I'm having issues converting the Casino Royal and the Back to the Future sequences as boot animations. I have them converted fine, but I keep getting out of memory errors when trying to test them. It looks like the shut down animation can be much larger then the boot animation. I'll keep taking a look at this to see what I can find out.
[HTC EVO 3D] ChrisDos:
Figured out the issues with make larger clips for boot animations. Added some Iron Man clips as well. Enjoy.
[HTC EVO 3D] firestetz:
Thanks a lot about to install the back to the future.
[HTC EVO 3D] firestetz:
They look awesome thanks for all the hard work love them.
[HTC EVO 3D] ChrisDos:
I've added How to Train Your Dragon and the Millennium Falcon clips from Empire Strikes Back.
[HTC EVO 3D] johncjenc:
Try setting permissions to rwrr instead. No x
[HTC EVO 3D] rlkd82:
Might be a long shot but any chance for previews of the clips?
[HTC EVO 3D] firestetz:
Hey Chris

Thanks again for the back to the future animations, I'm customizing them just a little but when I'm finished I'll upload them and see what you think.

I also found the mp3s for back in time and the back to the future theam song if anyone wants to use them for boot sounds.
[HTC EVO 3D] Pr0Ducer:
ahh! very useful! now i have the perfect 3VO!
[HTC EVO 3D] ChrisDos:
You can find them here:

http://www.chrisdos.com/evo_3d_animations/

I've updated the first post to reflect this.
[HTC EVO 3D] ChrisDos:
I've created a pieced together scenes of the Millennium Falcon from Start Wars and the Empire Strikes back. I've created both boot and down animations.

The boot animation is the full pieced together scenes. It's so long your phone will finish booting before it completes. Though with CM7's long boot times, you should be able to see the whole thing when it boots. You can also view it manually by running "adb shell bootanimation". I'm actually quite happy with it.

The downanimation is just the Millennium Falcon flying off into hyperspace. It's the very end of the boot animation. I have not tested the downanimation, so if there are problems, please let me know.

You can find the new Millennium Falcon and all the other animations from here:

[HTC EVO 3D] il Duce:
Hey, if you want to modify this CRT downanim it would look damn good. Grabbed it from a Samsung forum a while back.

http://db.tt/gj3WLkv

BANG! from my shooter...
[HTC EVO 3D] :
The back to the future down doesnt work for me. I only get a blank screen.

Edit: Solved
[HTC EVO 3D] vWvSTATICvWv:
I don't know if this has been asked, but is it possible to make 3D boot animations? I would imagine they'd have to be landscape if possible...
[HTC EVO 3D] ChrisDos:
From everything that I've read, it is not possible.
[HTC EVO 3D] u921333:
How about some Office Space love LOL like beating up the copy machine or something :)
[HTC EVO 3D] firestetz:
To anybody interested I have added the crt animation to the end of the btf down animation and also have the theme song, back in time song, and btf sound from original boot clip all in mp3. Haven't got sound for down clip yet got a little side tracked but will make it tonight. Sound for boot clip will have to be chopped and modified to match animation.
[HTC EVO 3D] todah09:
how about this one!!
[HTC EVO 3D] Mr. Moe:
Can you make a boot and down animation of my race video clip. only want the segment between 10-19 second on the clip. Thank you

http://youtu.be/Bl-iuIHrgGI
[HTC EVO 3D] ChrisDos:
If you can convert it into a video file such as mp4/avi then I will be happy to convert it.

BTW, my Cobra Terminator would like to have a try at your magnum. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] ChrisDos:
I've added some Terminator animations and clips. See the first post on how to access them.

I was able to convert all the Millennium Falcon jpgs into a movie. You can see it at:

http://www.chrisdos.com/movie_clips/
[HTC EVO 3D] Mr. Moe:
Yes that would be a nice duel, but I recently got a Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 the magnum is no longer in my stable.

I would love a boot animation of Freddy Krueger from NOES part 1 when he's walking down the alley with long arms! lol
[HTC EVO 3D] Aerostar601:
Can these be installed w BootScoot?

ChrisDos-

First- Thanks for such awesome boot/ down animations. This post is EXACTLY what I was looking for.

My problem is I already modded boot animations w/ boot scoot which causes the boot animations to be loaded differently. They don't load into Sprintbootanimation.zip because he changed the CID xml to load boot animations from somewhere besides Sprintbootanimation.zip. (I forget Where bcuz its 2:30am and my brain is mush)

Anyway-I was trying to take your Back to the future boot animation and load it in via his "Boot Animation signed zip flasher" and I can't get it to load. It says "bad" and aborts.

I guess I need to get the stock CID.xml and put it back so boot animations go back to Sprintbootanimation.zip?? Any ideas??

Noob TIA
[HTC EVO 3D] firestetz:
Scoot boot puts the files in /data/local. if you are using the flasher for boot scoot try renaming the files to bootanimation.zip or downanimation.zip and they should work.
[HTC EVO 3D] Aerostar601:
Got the bootanimations to work but still can't get the downs to go- Same as previous poster who just got black screen on down.

Any thoughts?
[HTC EVO 3D] ChrisDos:
The E3D is the first phone that I've seen that does down animations. It may be that scoot does not support down animations or they have to be named something else.

It was my pleasure to make the animations. I'm still using the Millennium Falcon up and down myself.
[HTC EVO 3D] il Duce:
downanimations work for sure, and down sound, with bootscoot. There is a bootscoot v2, so make sure you have that. I would guess if it only gives you a black screen something is wrong with the zip. Heck it might even be as simple as the desc.txt matching the xml for FPS. Make sure they're named "downanimation.zip" in your boot-anim-flasher.zip... Wait, you guys are flashing the second zip for bootscoot right?
[HTC EVO 3D] Skyphos:
I was just about to begin making some of these...may still have to. One thing I wanted to ask though is about the permissions and how they're written. From what I gather they're:

3 types (guessing system and user are 2/3rds on either end but not sure of the others)

Also I gather the:

R-read

w-write

x-execute

Im guessing its this (below)? to denote permissions level 1 is not set, two has read and execute and the final (user?) would have all three. Trying to get more into the backend rather than just "ooh zip! time to flash" mentality haha.

Thanks in advance!

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darrien13:
lets just say in the event I needed to return to stock but I wanted to be on 2.3.4 could I just find the ROM and install it ober CM7 and wipe or would I have to flash that nandroid stock backup? I have the t-mobile Nexus
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] forpulse:
I have a feeling that you would have to flash with nandroid stock backup. At least according to this guide i found elsewhere. (theunlockr dot com/2011/01/20/how-to-unroot-the-nexus-s/)

I. Before You Begin

1. This will return the phone back to the stock ROM and put you at build GRH78.

2. Use this method to start over, or to send your phone in for warranty reasons.

3. You MUST have a custom recovery image to use this unrooting method.

4. This WILL WIPE everything on your phone.

II. Create a Nandroid Backup

1. Turn off your phone.

2. Turn it back on by holding down Volume Up and Power until the green Android shows up on the phone.

3. Using the volume buttons and power to select, select Recovery from the menu.

4. Once in recovery mode, select Backup and Restore then select Backup and wait for it to backup your current ROM.

5. Once it is done, select Reboot and wait for the phone to reboot.

III. Flash the Stock Nandroid Backup

1. Download the stock Nandroid Backup and save it to your computer.

Stock GRH78 Nandroid Backup

2. Extract the .zip file somewhere on your computer.

3. Plug your phone in via USB cable and mount the internal storage so we can transfer files to it.

4. Find the Clockword folder on your phone’s internal storage and open it, then open the Backup folder inside there.

5. Copy the 2010-12-22.21.06.07 folder from the .zip file you extracted and put it inside the Backup folder we just opened.

6. Turn off the phone.

7. Turn it back on by holding down Volume Up and Power until the green Android shows up on the phone.

8. Using the volume buttons and power to select, select Recovery from the menu.

9. Once in recovery mode, select Backup and Restore then select Restore and choose the 2010-12-22.21.06.07 backup and wait for it to restore the phone to stock.

10. Once it is done restoring, select Reboot and wait for the phone to reboot.

11. Once it does reboot, turn it off and then back on normally again (this is to clear out the recovery image and bring that back to stock as well).

IV. Relock the Bootloader

1. On the phone, go through the setup process clicking skip where ever possible.

2. Then hit Menu then Settings then Applications then Development and make sure USB debugging is checked ON.

3. Plug the phone in via USB.

4. Open a command prompt on the computer by clicking on the Start menu and typing cmd and hitting enter in the search bar.

5. Then in the command prompt, type the following with hitting enter at the end of each line (this is assuming you did our How To Root the Nexus S procedure):

cd\

cd c:\androidsdk\tools

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot oem lock

6. The phone should relock the bootloader and you are now fully stock and completely ready to send the phone in for warranty

So on Saturday we had a pool party went to the pool with my wallet and phone in my pockets .ofcourse I forgot to check and I jump in the pool phone and all and I didn't realize untill 5 mins later when I bumped into the pool wall and felt it on my leg. I took it out I thought it was over but i decided to give the rice trick a shot and It worked :D . I'm preety amazed at how durable this phone is the only thing not working is the power button which is actually kinda annoying any ideas on how to get it working again?

That's crazy dive minutes underwater wow
[Epic 4G General] CrfEpic4g:

[Epic 4G General] JohnCorleone:
You are the 3rd person to say their phone worked after exposure to liquid. Two in a pool, one in a pot of soup. Most impressive indeed.
[Epic 4G General] murso74:
i dropped my in the toilet for a couple of seconds once. stuck it in dry rice overnight. for the next few days everthing worked except the touch screen was wonky. i ordered a new phone, but by the time i got it the phone i dropped was working like new. i swapped them anyway since i was going to pay the hundred bucks no matter what but i'll bet that phone would have kept on trucking
[Epic 4G General] DroidApprentice:
I have always had a preference for Samsung because (among other reasons) in my experience they physically build phones so well. Great anecdotes abound of their phones taking severe beatings and spills. Mine has already survived one nasty fall, and I don't use a screen protector anymore. Good stuff. ^_^
